Inmarsat Fleet One

Inmarsat Fleet One is the satellite communication solution that offers voice and data services through the use of a single device, and guarantees a service to global coverage. With Fleet One it is possible to obtain high performance and flexibility of the service at affordable prices: the terminals are at low cost and demand for traffic is particularly convenient in certain coastal regions.

The service was designed and developed specifically for yachts, powerboats and the medium-sized vessels. The service allows boaters and sailors to stay in touch with family, friends and business partners outside the coverage area of terrestrial telephone networks.

With Fleet One you can:

surf the Internet and check your E-mail;

access services for meteorology;

send to the respective monitoring centers, the relative data on trends in fishing;

see the latest information on routes and destination ports.

The solution provides the following functionality:

voice service (line 1) and data (up to 100 Kbps)

SMS Service

using WiFi as an access point

505 Fleet service One offers a free service and support always on emergency calls. By dialing the number 505, the user is redirected directly to an RCC (Rescue Coordination Centre) avoiding the inevitable delays resulting from a call centre. Once in contact with the RCC, you may communicate your identification data, its position, the number of people on board, the nature of the emergency and the type of required assistance. Fleet One 505 is not a GMDSS service.

Fleet One is specifically designed to meet the low data usage demands of occasional or seasonal users when they move out of VHF or GSM coverage areas. Inmarsat now offers two service plans to put satellite broadband in the reach of any size of commercial or leisure vessel.

FLEETONE GLOBAL

Fleet One Global offers flexible connectivity for any size of vessel, available for one price anywhere on the world’s seas.

Fleet One Global meets the voice and data needs of a wide range of users, from fishing and regional merchant vessels to global recreational seafarers. There is no vessel size limit.

There is one global rate and a choice of prepaid or postpaid options. Fleet One Global is flexible – you can de-activate and re-activate the service at any time so you only pay for it when you need it – making it ideal for both seasonal and regular users.

The service is aimed at occasional users looking to stay connected without having to worry about cellular coverage or network roaming charges. Competitive rates are available for prepaid use – ideal for one-off trips.

Fleet One Coastal is available to vessels under 500 gross tonnage. Typical users are small fishing and leisure boats up to 24 metres.

Both Fleet One options deliver all you need to stay connected at sea – email and business-critical applications like weather reports and navigation charts, simultaneous voice and SMS texting, plus Inmarsat’s free ‘505’ safety service, which in an emergency directs a call straight through to a Maritime Rescue Co-ordination Centre (MRCC). All delivered over the world’s most reliable commercial L-band satellite network using the Inmarsat-4s, with over 99.9% average network availability.
